And Jesus said to His disciples; ”Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also
loved you; abide in My love. This is My commandment, that you love one another."
Children’s Ministry News & Notes
New Schedule!!
With a new worship schedule we are creating a new schedule and routine for our children on Sunday mornings! The first Sunday of the month will remain family worship as we celebrate communion as the entire family of God! We will invite our children through 5th grade to leave worship on the second and fourth Sunday’s after children’s time to explore the arts including music, drama and bell ringing. Following worship and Bible Times we will move into the Dig in Room for snack and opening the Bible in story and activity! Join together September 9th to sign on and Dig IN to God’s word!
Digging Into the Bible in One Year takes kids on a whirlwind journey from Genesis to Revelation. Kids will experience a relationship with God through the eyes of ordinary Bible people. Kids will discover that they’re a lot like people God has always loved and worked through. Our new curriculum for the year includes: Story time, Craft, Games and fresh encounters with God! The classrooms are fresh and ready for your children, grandchildren and neighbors to begin a new journey this year with God as their guide!
New Rooms! The Children’s Ministry Team met over the summer to look at our classroom space, our students numbers and needs and reorganized our learning areas to give everyone a fresh look!! Stop by Sunday September 9th to register your child! Don’t miss the fun!

The Magic Penny Church
Get your pennies ready for Magic Penny giving to begin Sunday Sept 24th. We will use our collection to support victims of the hurricane flooding in the southern states. We will collect until Nov 12th and watch those pennies multiply.
Bible Times:
We are currently in need of volunteers for both services. Bible Times is a place to tuck God’s word into our children’s hearts. It is an opportunity to get to know our friends at church better and for our children to see God’s love working in and through people out-side of their homes. If you are interested in finding out more about this ministry, please contact Sara Kane at 875-5091 or children@kenmoreumc.org.
